Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Wendy A. Bickmore mainly focuses on Genetics, Chromatin, Cell biology, Gene and Cell nucleus. Her work on Genetics deals in particular with Genome, Regulation of gene expression, Chromosome Territory, Human genome and Genomics. Her study on Regulation of gene expression also encompasses disciplines like

  • Nuclear lamina which intersects with area such as Regulator and DNA methylation,
  • Gene expression most often made with reference to Nucleus.

Her Chromatin research includes themes of Evolutionary biology, Locus and Hox gene. Her study in Cell biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Molecular biology, Histone, Epigenetics and Cellular differentiation. Her Cell nucleus research focuses on Computational biology and how it relates to Interphase, Spatial organization, Sequence and Enhancer.

Her most cited work include:

  • The candidate Wilms' tumour gene is involved in genitourinary development (762 citations)
  • Differences in the localization and morphology of chromosomes in the human nucleus (749 citations)
  • Nuclear organization of the genome and the potential for gene regulation (638 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Cell biology, Chromatin, Gene and Molecular biology. Her Genetics research focuses on Computational biology and how it connects with Fluorescence in situ hybridization. Her Cell biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Histone and Transcription.

Her work deals with themes such as Enhancer, Epigenetics and Hox gene, which intersect with Chromatin. Her Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Heterochromatin, Heterochromatin protein 1 and Histone methylation. She interconnects Histone-modifying enzymes and ChIA-PET in the investigation of issues within Scaffold/matrix attachment region.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (50.00%)
  • Cell biology (36.96%)
  • Chromatin (36.52%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Cell biology (36.96%)
  • Chromatin (36.52%)
  • Genetics (50.00%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Chromatin, Genetics, Regulation of gene expression and Enhancer. Her work on Mitosis as part of general Cell biology study is frequently connected to Chemistry, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. Her Chromatin study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Molecular biology, Genome, Epigenetics and DNA hypomethylation.

Her Genome research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Reprogramming, Computational biology and DNA methylation. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Regulation of gene expression, ChIA-PET are connected with Polytene chromosome and other disciplines. Her Enhancer research includes elements of Sonic hedgehog and Promoter, Chromatin immunoprecipitation.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Spatial genome organization: contrasting views from chromosome conformation capture and fluorescence in situ hybridization (211 citations)
  • Chromatin decondensation is sufficient to alter nuclear organization in embryonic stem cells (196 citations)
  • A mechanism of cohesin-dependent loop extrusion organizes zygotic genome architecture (155 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

Wendy A. Bickmore mainly investigates Cell biology, Genetics, Chromatin, Regulation of gene expression and Gene. Her Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Heterochromatin, PRC2 and Genome instability. The concepts of her Heterochromatin study are interwoven with issues in Nuclear matrix, Nuclear lamina, Lamin and Scaffold/matrix attachment region.

Her research on Genetics often connects related topics like Computational biology. Her research integrates issues of Processivity, Genome, Epigenetics and Chromatin Loop in her study of Chromatin. The Genome study combines topics in areas such as Reprogramming and Nuclear function.
